Dmmetler Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 One of my students brought this to me today :). According to her mom, she and her oldest DD tried refurbing it after finding it at a yard sale, never got very far, and neither of hee other kkds want to mess with it, so it's been sitting around about a decade 🙂 They like the idea of turning it into a haunted House. Of course, in the last week, I've gotten as far on the community center as to paint the baseboards and make part of a swing set for the playground....work definitely gets in the way of fun! 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmmetler Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Look what one of my families gave me for Valentine's day-they found it for $1 at Goodwill!! It looks like someone did all the assembly, but stopped before finishing it. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmmetler Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 Built a porch, since it doesn't have one. Unfortunately, it may be next Christimas before I can find more if the little fencing... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dmmetler Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Since I'm not teaching today due to laryngitis, I've been playing with staging, mostly using stuff I did for the "haunted basement" last Fall. I need to make outfits for my critters (and M is working on some doll repaint creepy doll employees), but I'm enjoying the way it's coming up. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
